I've had this since 1986. It's really horrible I know and I am having bad symptoms now myself. I am on zoloft and clonazepam as needed to help me. Just like Moose24 said it is called derealization and depersonalization. It's a horrible feeling.

It’s called depersonalisation and derealisation. I’ve had it since 1985 although it’s better now. It used to terrify me and not one doctor knew what I was talking about. I can’t recommend any, particular, ways to cope but I felt better when I read up on it. There are some good books about anxiety and they have various coping strategies. Sending you my best wishes.
